If statement help

[Anonymous]

Trying to create a measure that write a statement that says "If the year is 2021, then divide by 5 and multiply by 12, if not then do nothing.

I wrote the below statement but I keep getting the error "A single value for column 'Year' in table 'Img Div_Img' cannot be determined. This can happen when a measure formula refers to a column that contains many values without specifying an aggregation such as min, max, count, or sum to get a single result."

My table is named 'Img Div_Img' and the column identifying the year is labeled 'Year'

Charge count is formatted at a whole number and Year is formatted as text

2021 Anlzd = IF('Img Div_Img'[Year] = 2021,SUMX('Img Div_Img','Img Div_Img'[Charge Count]/5*12),"")

TIA!!

@Anonymous if you are adding a column, do this:

2021 Anlzd = IF('Img Div_Img'[Year] = 2021,DIVIDE('Img Div_Img'[Charge Count],5)*12))

Hey @Anonymous ,

you always have to check for aggretated values. So also for the year.

Check if the following works:

2021 Anlzd =
IF(
    MAX( 'Img Div_Img'[Year] ) = 2021,
    SUMX(
        'Img Div_Img',
        'Img Div_Img'[Charge Count] / 5 * 12
    ),
    ""
)

If you need any help please let me know.
